I have an old CRT monitor for my computer. Lately it's started to sort of , I don't know, shake a bit. The screen does. Like the picture shrinks just a little bit for a second and then goes back to normal.
Any ideas what could be causing it? Is my monitor dying?
Earlier this month I got a new video card and went from the trial version of Windows XP Pro x64 to the real version (which I why I hope it's not my monitor dying, I'm still paying those off). Either of that could be the culprit, but I don't think so. One thing, though, the trial version did seem to have a driver for my monitor (an old Gateway EV700 that I got secondhand) but the real version didn't.
I've tried changing the refresh rate, but that doesn't seem to be it. I would try a different driver, but there only seems to be one stable version for my version of Windows. (The others either have graphic glitches in games or suffer from other problems). Though there is a new one I am going to download when I get a chance...
